"Drumstick" is a very tasty vegetation. Nuggekaayi or Nuggekodu in kannada, Sutti in Bihar is commonly used in India. Down South it accompanies other veggies in a sambhar, Korma or even dal. Up North it is used in gravies.

At work when girls found me eating this vegetable, would tease me saying my hubby would have a tough night. Very funny I thought. But I understand, there is a popular belief associated with this vegetable that it is said to increase the sexual libido (desire). Though not medically proven anywhere, this belief does the rounds. Good God!

This particular preparation is prepared at my in laws. And believe me its very delicious. My folks at home like it a lot. I shared this recipe with my Badimaa at M'lore & she even tried it after I came back to B'lore. You would relish it too.
